Somewhere on Earth - Hawaii: • Amazing Quest: Stories...
Leua, an itinerant vendor, spends part of each year traveling with his family on the Upper Mekong near the borders of China, Burma and Thailand. He knows this mythic river inside and out. Pheng is also an inveterate traveler but he sets out for the most remote corners of the country at the wheel of his old army truck. Pheng, who practices meditation, is progressing on the path of wisdom that all Buddhists dream of traveling.
A thousand km to the south, near the Cambodian border, are the Khone Phapheng Falls, the largest in Southeast Asia. Sohane is a fisherman, a very dangerous profession. Working above these turbulent waters, he places his life in the hands of the spirits of the Mekong.

The Lao PDR is one of the world's few socialist states openly endorsing communism. With one-party statestatus of Laos, the General Secretary (party leader) holds ultimate power and authority over state and government and serves as the supreme leader.
Laos 🇱🇦 is a socialist stateand the only landlocked country in Southeast Asia. At the heart of the Indochinese Peninsula, Laos is bordered by Myanmar and China to the northwest, Vietnam to the east, Cambodia to the southeast, and Thailand to the west and southwest. Its capital and largest city is Vientiane. Our Amazing Quest episode in Laos follows the very zen lives of Leua, an itinerant vendor, Pheng, who practices
meditation, and drives an old army truck and to the South, we visit Sohane, a fisherman near Khone Phapheng Falls, the largest in Southeast Asia. It’s a zen life in Laos. Anyone ever been? Please share with us.

all contents are amazing, full of knowledge.. 👍👍👍
Pls translate Indonesia
This is pretty sad that you can't even be respectful of the people of Laos. They are called Lao, not Laotians. Can't even do some simple research?
This is such a lovely documentary. Thanks for sharing🙏
My childhood memories of Laos,left the motherland in the mid 75’s, now that I am 56 years old living in USA, I often think about moving back to live a simple life again.I miss Laotian way of living.very educational awesome documentary about Laos 🇱🇦 my forever be homeland.🙏🙏🙏
Move back to beautiful and peaceful Laos the USA is being turned into a tyrannical toilet.
my parents did too around that time !! & my dad would be around your age if he didn’t pass last year 😢 he was always talking about Laos .. he was Buddhism as well ..
& he would say what you wrote Lol that he would wish he could move back to live the simple life again .. He would always have interesting stories to tell us as kids until we were adults .. my grandparents as well, they all had stories to tell 🤍 🙏
Awe…… really….what part of Laos is your parents from?im from kongsadone near parkse most Laos refugees have similar stories.where are you guys living at now in United States?I live in Tampa Florida.
Same here, I will be retiring next year. I’m looking forward to enjoying my golden year in Laos.
You should comeback, never think twice
Beautiful country and beautiful people. I had the privilege of working there as a public health nurse in the 60s/70s....life is difficult in the rural areas but people adapt. I still can speak the language pretty well .My greatest memory of this country is it’s friendly and gentle people.
I don’t believe you
I believe watching these sorts of documentaries often will help keep you grounded to what is reality. For advantaged people it's easy to forget that much of the world lives in a very difficult way.
yes i totally agree with you 100 pcent the world is full of rich beautiful cultures and wonderful people its politics that spoil it here in west but yes i agree
I’m part Laotian & my parents are from Laos but I was born & raised in the U.S .. my parents told me when I was a kid I would speak the language but I can only understand some & speak a little of it now .. I’m 33 yrs old now .. the language it’s all I have left of my dad .. he would love to watch this short documentary if he was still alive .. he would always talk about his homeland .. it’s cool to see this though ..
Growing up until my adult hood even until last year when my dad passed he would always have a story to tell us about Laos .. my grandparents too they all had stories to tell ..
it makes me think of my dad & miss him even more ..
🤍 🙏
I know how it feels to lose a father, me too I still miss my father who raised me into a perfect gentleman . . .
You can always go to a Lao school to relearn.
That's the thing with you Lao American born kids these days. Not wanting to learn your culture or language ! That's a shame ! I came to the states at a year old. Which was 42 yr ago.. I never forget my language or where I come from. My oldest son is 20 yr old and I made sure he speak to me, his father & my parents in Lao. In fact all my kids can speak. My youngest is 7yr old and she so fluent in Lao.
I admire the resilience and endurance of the Lao people! May God bless them to remain free and pure as they are.
After watched 3 episodes I’m being addicted to this documentary channel ⭐️⭐️
It is very addictive
Excellent. Hey, being addicted to learning and knowledge is one of the very few forms of addiction I can sign up to.
@@FreeDocumentary me too but 1 addiction that I see going on, here in London. Inhaling these little silver canisters, is definitely something not good to be addicted to. Basically, a few years ago, I started seeing these little silver canisters, all around my area, when walking the dog and when walking, in general. At first I thought nothing of it but the more I see bunches of them , the more my suspicion grew. I went home 1 day and Googled it. Turns out it’s the gas to fill balloons. People are buying boxes of them and inhaling, in the street , for a cheap quick high. Any solvent you inhale, is extremely dangerous to your health. It’s quite sad, actually. For years now I’m seeing them, everywhere and only a few days ago, I was out getting breakfast and as I went by a parked car, I noticed the driver throw something out the window and as I passed, it was at least 20 of those canisters. It was like 5am and the guy just launched them in to the road. I literally had to avoid them in case they caused me to crash. It must be so addictive because they are littered everywhere. It was just so shocking to see a guy just casually throw them out the window, like it was nothing. I’m sure others have noticed and know what they are up to. Some people are so low in life that they have no self love or respect for themselves and others around them.
@@grahamkelly8662 Addiction to a substance is a living hell. The path that took one there, the path to getting out. I don't wish that for anyone. I really don't. And while I understand how one can fall into that pit, I wish I could convey the message that life is worth fighting for. But I know it's not as simple as that. I know how hard it is and firstly and foremost, the affected person has to decide for themselves to get out. All in all, it's just a horrible place for anyone.
so true..me too 😊
Never knew or realize how beautiful Laos is.....grew up in refugee camp in Thailand during Vietnam War my dad worked alongside CIA....next thang I knew I was already in America!!
“Water is the source of life, we drink it but it can also kill us”
Sometimes the most profound words of wisdom come from the most unlikely sources.
I liked that when he said it as well. So simple but so very true
"the mountain gives and the mountain takes," in montañosa as we say it. nature makes u tremble in fear, therefore teaching you to respect it.
When I was in junior high school ( I am now 60) my next door neighbors were from Laos. They were very kind, friendly people. Since my parents were Hungarian refugees, there were interesting conversations... about fleeing Communism. ( Though this was usually with the help of a Lao - English dictionary.) My husband is Spanish ( hence my last name) and a chef, I have tasted a lot of international cuisine, but the Lao family once shared an incredibly spicy meal with my parents and I - I will never forget it, it had a green leafy vegetable that looked like spinach and was spicier than even the spiciest Indian and Mexican food - but good!
I really admired their passion, love and determination towards Mekong. May God bless them as they journey through life in the Great river.
My favorite country in the Asia 🌏
I spent eight of my best years in Laos. I still get home sick.
Very informative documentary live is so hard here! Diver is very awesome! In the end there was a fisherman who fishing from the river and selling the fish and feeding their family. Best wishes for him and his family.
No one goes hungry and there is little to no stress there
Love laos. I was born and grew up there. However, the country is isolated from other parts of the world. But that makes Laos interesting country amongst others countries in SEA in many ways. I heard about China will take over because of the debt. Hope and pray for Lao people to be strong, solidarity and be united to protect their country for their people and children to live peacefully and everyone can access to the same quality❤
Free documentaries is the best channel on TH-cam, Narrations of high standard.
Congratulations to all who's contributing to make this channel perfect.
Nothing but beautiful nature
I really love this documentary. It's very interesting. It beats watching those other videos about people folding clothes, showing off their wardrobes, etc. Now that's boring 😴.
Now a number projects on environmental protection along the Mekong are being implementd. We are working hard to protect Mekong and its abundance of fish, species, flora and fauna.
We love Mekong. Mekong means so much to us.
Mekong is our live and our everythings 🙏🙏🙏
The Fisherman has a good heart 💓
Watching from Nairobi 🇰🇪.Thank you.
My Kenya.. my country.....
Yes.... Kenya is in Africa...In east Africa side ....
I know you are lucky one live with the nature enjoy life together What big house or money can’t buy happiness Wow how lucky life you have just enjoy what you have
All in all the earth is just beautiful planet to live on .....full of amazing nature .
You are love Laos and Lao people.❤ With all respect from the Philippines 🙏🤍
Much love to you too Philippines
@@viennaxay Thank you🙏
I am addicted to you . All i wish keep on motivating me. I am following your footsteps
An excellent program I
Enjoyed watching and learning about the Laos people's.
What an awesome place! Each life highlighted is so different and yet all are connected to the Mekong in some way or another. I would love to visit Laos - it is a beautiful place.
Our Mother Land Laos 🇱🇦 we’re always love ❤️ thanks 🙏 so much for sharing great documents film 🎥 !
Greetings from Cambodia. I've lived in Laos twice and hope to return to Luang Prabang again.
The stories of Leua, Pheng, and Sohane along the Mekong River are a testament to the resilience and deep connection with nature of these individuals. It's a glimpse into lives shaped by the majestic river. Thank you for sharing these profound journeys.
I told myself that one day, I'm going back to visit my motherland. I love my Lao ppl,our food, and our simple life.
why did you leave your lovely country?
@mostlycloudy3069 I was a child when I left Laos 🇱🇦 but given a chance, I would love to revisit.
You can take the ppl out of their country but you cannot take that country out of those ppl.
I hope you’re able to return soon. Everyone deserves a homeland, their culture, language and heritage all preserved.
30:20 The rich countryside of Laos and the driver content with driving gives you a sense of peace! Wonderful!
I'm happy to call this country my new home since this year!
What is your nationality? Not possible for everyone to live in lao, especially to work in this poor country. I have often traveled to Lao and experienced the people one to one!
@@sngkram62 I'm German
@@svrider8411 if I may ask what made you leave and what do you do there for work
@@americanwolfke5sqb916 I didn't see my future in Germany, just the typical German career path, school-apprenticeship-work for 40 years in the same job-retirement-death.
I do farming over here, I grow rice and have lifestock.
Good on you! Enjoy your retirement in Laos👍
Very nice documentary I love water, rivers, water falls, snow capped mountains , lakes , seas , and ocean, nature has provided us....
Thanks FD in sharing your video.
Vow. Awesome. Such a beautiful documentary about nature and their people living. Best seen the face of the nature. 😊👍👍👍
Genau das Gleiche habe ich auch gesagt !
“Bopenjanja” can be the motto of Laos.
Nailed it. ✌🏽😃
I have lived on and off for 23 three years . My wife was born in Lao. I must say this documentary is way too romantic a version of the way life in Lao. They are beautiful people and is a wonderful place but life can be hard and unforgiving and most of the people live at or below the poverty line.
Best nya.
Best nya pulau .
John, how did you ive "off"? Your experience regarding Laos should have been mentioned in the documentary. They made it look like having basically nothing is great, without mentioning that many of the brightest, young people try to leave and go to Thailand or further abroad so they can have freedom.
Ufff una máquina! Felicitaciones! Transcordilleras es para capos! Y Non Stop! Uff, sin palabras….
Such a beautiful documentary. Thank you for allowing me to know about this beautiful country Laos and the wonderful people who live there.
Yes. Thank you
Compliments to the videographer. Every shot was gorgeous!
Fascinating view thanks FC to nice and informative video. More to come. God bless.
Still dream to know the Laos!!! Beautiful place
Wonderful documentaries! I deeply appreciate being able to virtually travel to places I will never personally go to. Thank you!
Free documentary le top. Supers moments de détentes et de grands dépaysements !
Never thought I would find this much inspiration and wisdom in a documentary about a third world country in SEA.
Advanced western democracies filled with unhappy people surrounded by meaningless material possessions can learn a lot from them.
I'm an American/Issaan/Thai living in Northern California....this documentary is an eye-opener!!!! Wow. Thank you!
You can call yourself thai all you want. In actuality Esan is LAOS. always have been laos ! We all know you want to claim thai because they have more popularity.. !
@@viennaxayIssan was Laos. The people are Lao. Just another place taken during the Colonial days Sad as Laos would be huge and have south of the river.
@@williamstropicalfarm5082 yes I agree 👍🏻

Lao people are at peace. They may be poor but they are happy. You dont see them complaining or commiting crimes. They are one with nature.
I hope Pheng has the opportunity to ordain. I rejoice seeing his practice.
enjoying to it from Ethiopia
Beautiful country .
Waw.. totally awesome ...
Eine sehr realistische ,schöne Doku von Laos . Natürlich werden hier extra die hässlichen und negativen Sachen die in fast jedem Land vorkommen nicht gezeigt ,was ich sehr schätze .Könnte sogar mit Kleinkindern angesehen werden ! BRAVO !
Thanks ,Danke ,Merci ,Kop Tschai !
17.7.2022.Very good and best.
Gorgeous country! I hope to visit Laos some day.
Go & visit Richard, it's a very beautiful country & safe for travellers too. I was there 4 years ago & would love to visit again.
Luang Prabang is beautiful
I didn't have time to visit Lao after my 5 days visit to Siam reap. So much to see, so little time
I lived in Laos 2007-2015. Beautiful country with wonderful people and interesting culture. See Laos before it becomes too developed.
Fun fact: Lao formerly known as Ai Lao peoples also spelled Liao peoples originated from Altai mountain, Mongolia over thousands of years ago they were the original founders of ancient China and modern China they also founded Hainan island, Taiwan, Thailand, Korea, Japan, Northeastern India, Burma, Vietnam, Cambodia, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Philippines, and Hawaii.
Laos are the ancestral homeland of East Asia, mainland southeast Asia, and Island Southeast Asia according to multiple sources around the world.
So Great docu on the daily life of simple happy people but tough both physical and spiritual. Something to emulate more than the life of rich , famous and luxurious possesions but beneath / deep is chaos & unhappy life.
Amend!
Love the boats. Looks like a mobile house on the river
Free documents 💯
good
spirit
greetings from Indonesia
I love laos I’m Laos beautiful
Nice video
